• Critical thinkers understand biased thinking and can identify it in themselves and others
• Critical thinkers give specific feedback, rather than feeback that would be appropriate in a yearbook.
• Critical thinkers are also able to suggest improvements to each other.
• Critical thinkers give credit to colleagues and credit to sources.
• Critical thinkers take what they learn from the content of the class, but shape it to reflect a product that comes from their own thinking and experience.
